About the Event
Join this shoreline cleanup at Founders Landing in Marquette, MI.
Volunteers, sign-in and grab your supplies at the pavilion in the day use area at 10am. Gloves, buckets, and trash grabbers will be provided. Please bring your own if you have some!
This event is happening in partnership with the Marquette County Conservation District and skellaFIT.
As we clean from 10am-12pm, we will count how many pieces of trash we collect to contribute to the #GreatLakes1Million challenge, led by Great Lakes Great Responsibility.
Our clean up agenda:
10AM: Meet near the North Parking Lot at 640 S Lakeshore Blvd across from the condos to sign-in and grab supplies.
10:10-11:45AM: Spread out along the shoreline and inland areas to pick up trash, counting how many pieces you collect
11:45AM (or earlier): Meet back near the parking area to weigh trash and share trash count data
12:00PM: Final trash tally and total weight revealed -- celebration time! A prize to be given for most trash collected.
Cheers to clean water! Please share far and wide!
